    Considered Both Products

    Chose ScreenConnect
    TeamViewer was too expensive, and LogMeIn didn't allow immediate remote access.

    Chose ScreenConnect
    The main reason we looked at ScreenConnect was the value, as a lot of the many other remote support tools were very costly for the same package. Or they didn't supply branding options. The other defining factor we had was that some other remote support tool had been used for …

    Chose ScreenConnect
    ConnectWise is far superior to LogMeIn Rescue and other similar competitors based on several factors. First is cost, ConnectWise is very fairly priced and is easy to add technician licenses as needed. Next, the client install is very light weight and not resource intensive. The …

    I use a MSP to assist with some of the troubleshooting that might arise. Initially, they let me use their remote software (I don't remember the company) but because of security concerns, had to limit my access. They replaced their remote access software with ScreenConnect. I …

    Chose ScreenConnect
    After working with and looking into a number of other remote software options, ScreenConnect provided the options we needed with the cost to match. Many others have similar features, but not all we needed. Others had more features than we could even use, but the cost was well …
